Néktar
Their Bitter Chocolate Martini ($20) is crystal clear and looks just like water, but it tastes incredible. Just an ounce each of Heavy Water vodka and white crème de cacao, finished with a dash of crème de menthe that’s stirred briefly, then strained into a martini glass ensures it isn’t too sweet or too strong. Paired with a sliver of 55 percent Valrhona chocolate, it’s perfection.

Drink Culture
Yes, it’s gorgeous to look at, but more importantly, the Chocolate Hazelnut Flambé Special ($28) is simply delectable. Much like drinking a liquid dessert, this is built for those with a sweet tooth and aren’t averse to dairy. There’s vodka, chocolate liqueur, hazelnut liqueur and a generous layer of whipped low-fat milk foam that’s been torched to form a slightly brunette coat.

Brussel Sprouts
Order yourself a bottle of tall and handsome Floris Chocolate Beer ($14) for a seriously gratifying drink. It’s creamy, slightly sweet and bursting with chocolaty goodness; you might even be tempted to skip dessert altogether. Best enjoyed chilled with a hearty dose of Brussel Sprouts’ famous mussels and free fries refills, good friends and while indulging in some mandatory people-watching.

This is the greasiest of the bunch and a very crumbly double chocolate chip cookie indeed. About the same size and half the weight of Cookieman’s version, it has a distinct chocolate taste and is fairly light with mini choc chips. Neither crispy nor soft, it’s pleasant but reminiscent of a first date you’re not quite sure you want to see again.

#B207‐2‐1 Takashimaya Food Hall, Ngee Ann City, 391 Orchard Rd., 6733‐3833.
The largest at 11cm in diameter, as well as the most expensive, we were horribly disappointed in this 59g double chocolate chip cookie (so hard it could’ve easily qualified as a discus). The cookie itself lacks any semblance of cocoa flavor and the mini chocolate chips taste artificial. It also has a life span of four months, which makes us wonder about the preservatives that go into it. You couldn’t pay us enough to eat this again.

#02‐04 The Esplanade, 1 Esplanade Dr., 6333‐0878.
A soft, compact and incredibly dense cookie that’s fudge‐like in texture. Glossy sheen aside, this is a little on the sweet side for our taste. Studded with bittersweet choc bits, we reckon this would go down better with a strong shot of jet‐black coffee.

#2 Famous Amos

$4.80 per 100g bag.
#B1‐43 Wisma Atria Shopping Centre, 435 Orchard Rd., 6738‐9928.
While this is the smallest and may weigh in at only 7g, this no nut chocolate chip cookie isn’t pulling any punches. Super crisp with a satisfying crunch to the bite, the well‐balanced flavor of sweet and salty are highly‐ addictive. We do secretly wish there were more choc chips, but theirs were seductively oozy. We’re definitely locking down a second date.

#3 mezza9

$6.40 per 100g bag.
2/F Grand Hyatt Singapore, 10 Scotts Rd., 6732‐1234.
The other runt of the pack at 9g, this is a very solid, yet still crumbly double chocolate chip cookie that isn’t too sweet. Crisper than Cedele’s but not as much as Famous Amos’. A rich cocoa flavor, lingering buttery aftertaste and nice melty chips make for a scrumptious bite.

Edible proof that cheap can be very, very good. The most natural‐looking of them all with a strong vanilla smell, and even looks like something that was whipped up by Nana. Quite soft and the chewiest of the lot, there’s also a generous dose of chocolate chips and we were surprised by how satisfying it was. We’d take this one home to meet the ‘rents.
